My sister is getting married!!
The wedding was held in Raleigh, NC which is about a 3 hour drive for us, so we left early Friday morning, so we could make it there with enough time to get ready and head to the wedding venue, Market Hall, to rehearse for the big day!
Time to rehearse! Our family and Jojo’s family all gathered at the wedding venue to practice for the big day! Many don’t know, but the kids and I were all part of the wedding party.
Heather - Matron of Honor
McKaila - Junior Bridesmaid
McKenna - Flower Girl
Logan - Ring Bearer
Rehearsal went great and after rehearsing a couple different times, it was time to head to rehearsal dinner at Tobacco Road Sports Cafe.
But, before we started eating in was time for me to give my maid of honor speech. Y’all know me, I dislike speaking in front of people, but this wasn’t all that bad ‘cuz it was just the wedding party, parents and some family friends, so it was a lot less people than what would be at the wedding! I was a bit nervous still, so McKenna came through and come up with me to hold my hand while I read my speech.
My speech was short and sweet and was so glad when it was all over. Now, time to eat!!
We got to enjoy some super delicious food and great company. It was really nice to have this down time with friends and family before the wedding day.
After going back to the motel, we all gathered in the bar area to mix and mingle with all the other wedding guests. It was so fun seeing everyone. We got to meet more of the Arizpe family and I got to see some of Ambers friends that I haven’t seen since her living in Richmond.
It was a great afternoon/night, but we also had to call it a semi early night cuz tomorrow Amber and Jojo are getting MARRIED!!!!
